Sentences with phrase «term weather models»

There are many current attempts to improve the short - term predictability in climate models in line with the best weather models, though it is unclear what impact that will have on projections.
Well my point is that a model that is tuned to match a climate signal only, should not track, accurately, a record that is both a climate and weather signal especially when we know that these medium term effects can be quite strong, even if they cycle out in the longer term.
The working hypothesis is that even if the climate system may have the possibility of long - term chaos, it is nonetheless more like William's example of what happens when you change a parameter of the Lorentz model, than it is like the problem of predicting a single day's weather a year ahead.
perhaps it's useful to think that climate models are used to get an idea of the statistics of long - term weather conditions, but the weather itself remains chaotic and will never be predictable beyond a week or so.
In the case of climate models, this is complicated by the fact that the time scales involved need to be long enough to average out the short - term noise, i.e. the chaotic sequences of «weather» events.
I know in general terms that the hydrological cycle should intensify with warming and that one event is hard to pin on climate change, but it would be good to do a catch up on how the broad trend of extreme weather fits the models.
Sea surface temperature (SST) measured from Earth Observation Satellites in considerable spatial detail and at high frequency, is increasingly required for use in the context of operational monitoring and forecasting of the ocean, for assimilation into coupled ocean - atmosphere model systems and for applications in short - term numerical weather prediction and longer term climate change detection.
These weather systems must be well modelled by meteorologists since they have a pretty good record of short term forecasting.
This capability would enable a model to continuously update and improve parameterization approaches on the fly, with the potential to improve climate predictions and short - term weather forecasts.
As mentioned above, it shows the models do well at predicting model monthly - scale variability — so they are capturing many elements of what would be reasonably termed «weather».

The 2001 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report that governments accept as certain predictions of future weather says, «In climate research and modeling, we should recognize that we are dealing with a coupled non-linear chaotic system, and therefore that the long - term prediction of future climate states is not possible.»
Judith's last comment bears repeating: «The weather forecasting enterprise needs to get its act together in terms of better interpretation of the various models available (the UK Met Office weather forecast model is currently getting a lot of attention in the private sector weather forecasting community).
The weather forecasting enterprise needs to get its act together in terms of better interpretation of the various models available (the UK Met Office weather forecast model is currently getting a lot of attention in the private sector weather forecasting community).

The weather (yes, weather is not climate - long term weather pattens are the climate - and no - as we are dealing with fluid dynamics (along with many other factors still poorly understood) these do not get smoothed out and become predictable over time with present models - models can not even predict what the jet streams will do from one season to the next.
Linearity can be a useful approximation for short - term effects when changes are small as in some weather forecasting, but certainly not for the long - term predictions from climate models.
